    Swordtail sick?

    Yup, the powerhead keeps the water going in a corner that was pretty dead. I was wondering the same thing, he seemed to be right behind the powerhead stream. Thanks for the help. My sword is doing a "little" better perhaps? Still waiting and watching.

    Swordtail sick?

    Hi All, I emptied my 30 gallon tank (which was used a medicating tank during a bout with ich) yesterday. So today I go to finish cleaning it out before attempting to cycle and use it again for regular use, when I notice very small black things darting around. They are no larger than a pin...
